Do you meet guys parents after you have a baby or before you get pregnant?

[Anonymous]

I’m asking cuz im dating a guy since last year so one year and half and I never have met his parents only until now he talks a lot of them and more open but that’s it. I know this guy for 5 years. Has that happened to anyone? Get pregnant first without knowing his family? I’m not pregnant but I worry for future.

For traditional people, you meet the guy, you meet his friends, you meet his family, YOU GET MARRIED, and then you start your family. Billions of smart people have done that for thousands of years and it worked well for those who tried to make it work.

We just date we don’t meet parents yet. However ik him many years it’s not. Random guy I met yesterday for hookup. He’s my boyfriend but we don’t meet family

[Asker]

He talks now of his fmaily and more open but we still don’t meet them. Just date weekly and share everything together texting daily

Date, get to know each other, meet each other’s friends, family, parents. (Between one month to 9 months) … go to each other’s family events, take trips together… falling in love.
After 9 months to one year… it becomes more serious … can start talking about engagement …
Have an engagement dinner with both families/friends… can last another year… have … start planning wedding. Married by year 3… kids can come by year 4-5. Both families celebrate the new pregnancy…
this all happened in my family. older brother, sister… now my little sister just had a baby… her in laws stayed at my house with the baby… one happy family.

if you don’t see the strangers family and spend holiday alone… I don’t know what to say. I wish you and baby well and receive the love you both deserve.

We r dating one year and half now. No meeting parnets yet , just had one trip last year , no fmaily events..

Sounds like a side chick. But I don’t know.

[Asker]

Side chick is someone u don’t date. We do date weekly. He has a full time job.

[Asker]

Maybe some men r too scared meet parents. That’s y u see some men meet parents fast in one second.

[Asker]

Not everything has to be side chick.

[midnightmoon05]

Side chick is when they spend holidays alone while the guy has other more important people to tend to.
Have you met his closest friends?
In what ways does he care for you? In your personal level? Your health? Career?

A man who loves a woman can’t hide his love/excitement to show off to others.

Ehmmmm you've only been together 1.5 years... why are you thinking about kids? To answer your question, yes, you should definitely meet family first.

[Asker]

Is that too early to have kids and meet parents?

[IveGotNoName]

It's too early to have kids

[Asker]

Wen it’s right time hav kids

[IveGotNoName]

I can't tell you that, but you definitely shouldn't have to ask if you're supposed to know the parents.

[Dawn183]

You should meet each other's parents while dating. Definitely, before anything big happens in the relationship ie. anniversaries, proposal, engagement, marriage, babies, or even thoughts of babies, you should meet each other's parents

[Asker]

We don’t meet family yet just dates , I spend holidays alone

[LazerBean]

Before you make any serious commitment.

[Asker]

Have some girls gottenpregnant before without meeting guys family?

[LazerBean]

Plenty do

[XXblack88]

[JohnK123]

U should meet them before u get babies
